Based on the above reasons, Wang Shizi is still full of confidence in this cooperation with Huawei. Therefore, although I also attached great importance to the meeting the next day, I was very relaxed in my mentality.

But when the two sides sat together the next day, the atmosphere was very solemn, and it was obvious that Huawei's top executives attached more importance to this meeting than Datang Shizi Technology.

"Mr. Wang, if we really operate according to the plan you gave, it means that our overall product layout and strategic focus will be shifted to the field of high-end mobile phones, and a large amount of capital will be needed to prepare for the research and development of the next generation of models in the early stage.

It is the director of Huawei's strategic marketing department who spoke, obviously after receiving the plan of Datang Shizi Technology, Huawei has had countless internal discussions, although it cannot refuse the temptation to move towards the high-end field, but it is still concerned about the requirements put forward by some Datang Shizi Technology, and took this opportunity to directly put it forward.

Of course, this is also inevitable. Huawei is also one of the top high-tech enterprises in China, and its products also occupy a place in the world, with shipments almost closely following Apple and Samsung, of course, this is also related to the high cost performance of Huawei smartphones. Rash changes in marketing strategies will naturally worry about the greater impact on their own performance, and naturally need to be considered more prudently.

"There's really no need to worry too much about that. I believe you have also studied the technical information we provide, including some of the underlying instruction set, as well as some of the technical parameters, and you should also have a general conclusion. In fact, we have conquered the key technologies, and now what you have to do is nothing more than to complete the definition and architecture design of new products, of course, it is necessary to increase investment in terms of funds, and it is natural to concentrate on the production of new models in the future. ”

"The reason why we choose only Huawei, Xiaomi and Apple is because these three companies are currently the leading companies in the smartphone market, and they are also performing well in the international market, and everyone has further requirements. What's more, these three companies were all in the beginning when Datang Shizi Technology encountered some small troubles. The first company to sign a contract with us. This means that the two sides are at least trustworthy, so the initial investment in scientific research of 5 billion yuan is really not expensive. ”

Wang Shizi said here and pondered for a moment before he continued: "Of course, we are just a plan, if you feel that the risk is too great and you are not willing to invest rashly, we will not be reluctant, and it is also a good choice to continue to cooperate in the current form of cooperation." ”

"No, no, no. Mr. Wang misunderstood what we meant, we just hope that you can give certain preferential policies in terms of future authorization funds and Huawei's early investment in research funds......" said the marketing director quickly.

"Hey, no......" Wang Shizi sighed and waved his hand, "I believe you also know that the investment in scientific research is the most expensive." To be honest, although Datang Shizi Technology has mastered the key technology of 3D virtual screen, the next research and development work will also burn money. On the basis of the existing battery capacity, it is necessary to make the future 3D virtual phone last as long as possible. As you can imagine, the operating system is required to be streamlined and low-cost, but this is only an initial investment, not just the system needs to be optimized. What's more, the power consumption of the entire mobile phone hardware has to be reduced, and the investment in this area is even greater. ”

"So if you want to join this alliance that hasn't been formed yet, your company really can't save this money. In addition, reducing power consumption is only a temporary last resort. We can't put all our hopes on the freshness of the consumer. In order to make our 3D virtual mobile phone fully effective, it can last for a long time, and it is also necessary to invest in the research and development of new battery energy, which is also within the scope of our Datang Shizi's follow-up development. These require a significant investment. Moreover, as far as I know, Huawei has always been stingy in its investment in scientific research, and this time it should be no exception. ”

The director smiled bitterly, he didn't bother to talk, anyway, in the end, the big boss who sat on the side had to make a decision.

The point is that the person on the other side is too strong in confusing concepts, is that the same thing? Huawei is very generous in investing in scientific research, but the technology developed by the money invested in it is its own, and now it gives the money to Datang Shizi Technology, and the technology developed is someone else's, and if you want to use it, you have to continue to spend money to obtain authorization. Billions of yuan in exchange for a guaranteed qualification for authorization is debatable.

Although the contract given by Datang Shizi Technology guarantees a one-year buffer period for the first mobile phone manufacturer, that is to say, within one year from the official launch of this technology, this technology will never be authorized to other manufacturers, and the price of licensing to other manufacturers after the expiration of one year is at least twice as much as theirs, but this really has to bet that there will be no big problems after this technology is listed, and even more bet that Datang Shizi can deliver this technology to them as scheduled, otherwise they will not only pay a huge amount of research and development funds, The preparatory work was also in vain......

In short, this is a standard opportunity and risk, and how to make decisions is obviously not something that he, a director-level person, can interject.

And the next moment, Ren Zhiyuan, who had been quietly listening to the answers between the two sides, suddenly spoke, "Mr. Wang, just now you said that your company will continue to develop new battery technology in the future?" I wonder if this project has already started? ”

"No, for the time being, I don't dare to spread it so big. Of course, if this project is officially approved in the future and comes to fruition, with the cooperation between us, our new battery will definitely give Huawei a relatively favorable price! Wang Shizi replied very seriously.

A group of Huawei executives next to him rolled their eyes in unison, talking about a technology that has not even been approved yet, this pie is really far enough, it feels like a new battery can be developed by R&D, can we be pragmatic? In other words, so many companies invest hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in the research and development of new batteries every year, and no one has made a breakthrough until now......

"Then this has to be written into the contract as well."

Ren Zhiyuan's answer once again plummeted the glasses of all Huawei executives on the scene, can the chairman not be so sincere, do you really believe it when people draw a pie? When did the level of trust between people become so high in this society?

"Of course it's fine!" Wang Shizi nodded, with a natural expression. (To be continued......)
